Well I just had a new clutch put in last week and it has been fine. Pedal effort was smooth.
Moving on to today I went to install the Fiore FW adjuster and quadrant. Got three of the four bolts in. Thought I was doing good. After every thing was in I started to adjust every thing and had no luck. With FW adjuster almost touching the cam cover it just fell to the floor only starting to disengage when it hit the floor.
I put the LDC freeplay kit on it hoping it would help. I felt the same with exception that it now felt springie. So I take my self over to Latemodelrestoration and picked up a steeda Quick release quadrant. Put it on with the cable on the hook closest to the fire wall. It helped a little but it felt like the cable still had to much slack, and the adjuster was almost all the way out. So decided to use the one near the driver. To do this I had to put the FW adjuster all the in to the fire wall. I was able to put the quadrant on by hand without removing the cable from the fork. This seams to have fixed the problem but the cable feels tight. However the clutch pedal seams to move about an inch or so before I feel it disengage.
I used the OEM cable, because it only has 23000 miles on it.
So I guess the questions are.
Is it ok for the cable to have tension on it? (Feels like alot to me)
Does the cable disengaging after about a inch to an inch and quarter travel sound right? (starts to disengage just above the brake pedal)
Do you guys think the stock cable could be stretched after 23000 miles?
Not hearing the TOB when the car is running!
I just don't want to hurt the clutch before it gets broke in.
As for the clutch its a new fomoco pressure plate, custom built six puck, and a 03 mach1 iron flywheel (had 7000 miles on it when turned).
Before I posted this I searched and read for a couple hours on here, and just couldn't find the answer I was looking for. So yalls thoughts and imputs are welcome cuz Im just not sure.
May have to add a few later
Thanks Gabe
